Backups need backups. Having multiple means to make fire is good common sense. I myself carry a Zippo once its lit it stays lit unlike a disposable lighter. And you can use it to dry a wet piece of tinder and they are fairly good in the wind. I bought one from zippo in bright orange so as not to loose it, good camo jobs unfortunately do their job and you can't find them when dropped and murphy says that will happen in the dark. The bonus of disposable lighter is that when it gets soak blow out the flint area and keep using the roller until it dries its self and sparks a flame. I had a fishing friend with a nasty habit of smoking, who reinforced my faith in the disposable lighter by dropping his at least once a trip when fishing the shoreline. And flint and steel is never affected by getting wet and in my opinion always be one of the most reliable means to start fire.<br><br>
